Driving in Denver can get a little crazy. Even when the weather is nice, there’s no shortage of back-ups across the city at certain times of the day.

Denver Police released a list of the top 10 worst intersections in Denver (so far) for 2019.

The list was compiled based off data collected from traffic reports starting January 1 through June 1, 2019.

Denver Police also included the total number of recorded crashes at the same intersections from 2018.
